I probably forgot something but hopefully this got you at least a bit excited

How to get this to work?On Windows this is very simple, just download the win32 zip package, extract and run CEED.exe.On Linux you have to download the source package, get dependencies separately and run "python entry.py" (I highly recommend reading How to get CEED from Mercurial running)

Known problems of this release1) When you open a project and close it you can't open another project, CEGUI doesn't clean after the previous project fully, as a workaround close CEED and start it again - this is obviously annoying and will get fixed2) the splashscreen disappears when you click it or move mouse over it, it doesn't react to mouse if it isn't over it - this is obviously annoying and will get fixed3) tablet mice and pens tend to have problems on both Windows and Linux (clicks not getting registered, etc...), this is a problem that started in Qt 4.6 and happens with all Qt apps, hiponboy reported this on Windows with a Wacom Bamboo tablet4) segfault inside python when shutting down, this seems to only happen on Windows and seems to be PySide race condition issue, hopefully will be fixed in future versions, it's not that hard to trigger but doesn't happen all the time

I put a lot of work into this and would appreciate feedback! I am also desperately looking for contributors, this is a very ambitious project and requires a lot of work, if you know Python and are interested in this, please send me a message.

(I will be working on a GSoC project over the summer so I won't have much spare time but I hope to integrate external changes over the weekends and maybe hack a thing or two there and there)

Exception message: CEGUI::InvalidRequestException in file ..\..\..\cegui\src\CEGUIGUILayout_xmlHandler.cpp(212) : GUILayout_xmlHandler::startElement - layout loading has been aborted since no WindowFactory is available for 'TaharezLook/LargeVerticalScrollbar' objects.

The app doesn't seem to function due to these errors, although it doesn't immediatly crash.

Hehe, you are entering a world of hurt by trying layout editing in this release. As stated above and on the splashscreen, only imageset editing is actually usable, layout editing is just preliminary and really just a tech demo of how I want things done in the future.

Good. This is just what CEGUI needs! With a good tool skins can more easily be made and we can finally access and use the power that CEGUI contains. Very much appreciated, and eagerly looking forward to new releases!
